80 Books Every Person Should Read

Tue, Jul 26

What can we say? At Esquire, we messed up. Our list of "80 Books Every Man Should Read," published several years ago, was rightfully called out for its lack of diversity in both authors and titles. So we invited eight female literary powerhouses, from Michiko Kakutani to Anna Holmes to Roxane Gay, to help us create a new list. Each participant made 10 picks. We're looking forward to reading and we hope you are, too.
